Connecting the Water Line
This feature is only available on some models.
Water Supply Requirements
Connect the appliance to a cold water supply with a 
maximum inlet water pressure not exceeding 1.0 
MPa. A water pressure between 138kPa and 
827kPa is recommended for the optimal operation 
of the water dispenser. If the refrigerator is 
installed in an area with low water pressure (below 
138 kPa), you can install a booster pump to 
compensate for the low pressure.
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is 
connected to your cold water supply, the water 
pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to 
be a minimum of 138 kPa.
•  Unplug the appliance before carrying out any 
work on connecting the water line. Failure to do 
so may cause electric shock.
•  Only connect the water line to a cold water 
supply. Failure to do so may cause the water 
filter to malfunction. Water hammer (water 
banging in the pipes) in house plumbing can 
cause damage to appliance parts and can lead to 
water leakage or flooding.
•  Connect to potable water supply only.
•  Connecting the water line must only be installed 
by a qualified plumber and in accordance with 
local legislation and regulations governing 
water quality.
•  This water line installation is not covered by the 
appliance warranty.
